NO RAIN ON NEWCLOVER PLOT
 
I live in southwestern VA I planted an acre of imperial clover on Sept 1st. We havent had any rain for two weeks and doesnt look like any coming this week.I havent seen anything coming up yet this is my first big plot I have planted. Will the seed germinate and come up after laying for a few weeks with no rain?

Glad to see I'm not the only one waiting on rain. Seems like every year I plant there is a 2 week period with no rain, even when they call for rain and I plant the day before it seems to stay dry.

my plots got off to a decent start............then no rain............... atleast they are a little drought tolerant.......so the first drop will liven it up

2 years ago we planted a food plot in early August. We had no rain for 5 weeks. But then we got some good rain and up came the food plot.

Don't give up on it yet!!

We finally picked up some rain. About a half inch last night. There are chances 4 out of the next 7 days.

We still havent had any rain but I went down to look at my plot this morning and there is some of it finally coming up here and there. I am still praying we will get some rain from this next front coming from the west or a little from Ophila on Friday.

Today makes 3 weeks without a drop here. My plot has been in for over 2 weeks now also. I hope the hurricane sends some this way. We really need some, not just for my plot, but overall.
